Guest guest Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 Hi everyone, I have had a lot of symptoms return that appear to be from chiari. I saw a neurosurgeon last week and he said my surgery was perfect and everything works great. Without examining me he said I had fibermyalga. I have an appointment with Dr. O. in Co. in Oct. Has anyone experienced this kind of thing? Do you think I am wasting Dr. O. time and ours? I am so confused. Meanwhile I am swaying, running into things, slurring my speech, having mild pressure headaches that come and go throughout the day. I am also experiecing loss of bladder control as well as diarrea, muscle weakness in legs. I have quit driving because of concentration issues. I am like drop attacks in my hands and arm (one or the other - like spastic and uncontrollable). My neck and shoulder hurt all the time and I feel like at times someone is pinching it and yanking down, MRI showed small mild disc bulge at cr-t/ lager focal central disc protrusion at the C5-6 level without cord compression or canal spinal stenosis, otherwise stable. I am on gabapentin (600 mg 3x daily), baclofen (10 mg 3x daily) and diamox 2x's (have been taking a break on this one, not sure if I will go back on).and muscle weakness. There you have it. Please give my your thoughts. Reva decompression 2007 MRI: Cine MRI: Cysternogram; EMG/NCV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
